I kinda do too. I won’t be getting this but it seems like another example of SS doing more comic accurate stuff, which is a good thing in my book.

Of course but some of the comments cross the line in my opinion. Some people come off as know it all's.

But the front of his hands shouldn't count. Otherwise he wouldn't be able to move his hands up and down with the claws retracted. Those should be the length of the forearms only, if we don't want to stretch credibility. (Again, even for a comic-book)

I get why some people like the spectacularity of those big, imposing claws. It's just not my thing, though. Too... fanboyish for my liking.

You are correct ...his claws are stored in his forearm ...between the wrist and elbow. It was even stated in the comics (Official Marvel Handbook comic, I believe). The claws had to be that length otherwise Logan wouldn't be able to bend his elbows and wrists.

However, a few artists have taken the liberty to draw his claws longer just to add more dramatic effect. I guess this is one case in statue form.

I actually like the black parts of his mask longer, too. I'm referring to the pointed part of his mask. I noticed that the length varies per artist, too.

I prefer this:



Actually, I would've loved this bust more if the portrait on the PF was used.

The scale is...underwhelming.

I didn’t even think about it, but it makes sense.

Thanos is a huge guy and his bust wasn’t even 11 inches tall. Wolverine being a very short man, it would make sense his bust would sit neatly in the palm of a hand.

That looks 1/4 scale, is that what it's supposed to be. Any predictions on what they're going to charge for this? I like it but at that size it's really not worth more than 150 although I'm sure it will be priced a lot higher.

If it was reasonable I'd like to get it and a hulk if they do it. Would make nice companion pieces for the hulk vs wolverine maquette.

Interesting to me but will wait for the infamous price.
